re: The Bachelor Canada

I always find these people look/act better on camera than in their (usually stiff and fake-looking) promo pictures. Hopefully he'll be laid back and fun. I agree that he isn't likely to be wealthy, so no gold-diggers need apply. I don't imagine the CFL pays a huge amount and being a free agent...well.... BUT if he's a nice guy, has fun, isn't a horndog like Blob or a dud like Ben, then I'll consider the season somewhat successful.

I'm just hoping we get some likeable girls and they aren't all hootchie ladies who are trying too hard. Yes, they will cast some crazies I'm sure but maybe a genuine girl or two as well. One can only hope, right?

I agree about the traveling. I'd like to see them go to interesting places, but usually Canadian versions of these shows are more low-budget so who knows.

Citytv announced that the Canadian version of the popular American dating series will have a 90-minute debut Wednesday, October 3 at 9 p.m ET/PT., after which it will move to its regular timeslot of 9:30 ET/PT.

Twenty-five lucky ladies will be battling for the heart of 28-year-old former CFL receiver Brad Smith. The first five contestants were revealed on Breakfast Television Wednesday morning – and they include a Playboy model and a woman nicknamed Bubba.

According to a press release, the next five contestants (which, unfortunately, won’t include our own Bachelor hopeful Miranda Furtado) will be unveiled next Wednesday on Breakfast Television, while host Tyler Harcott will give viewers their first peek into the show’s Victoria, BC mansion (and it’s soon-to-be-infamous hot tub) Thursday, Aug. 30, at 9 a.m. ET.

I watched it tonight. Pretty much the same as the US version. It is too early for me to tell if I will really like it much but I know I already don't like the one girl, Gabriel! I also thought it wasn't nice to walk on the stones with the gap in between the stones, I could see someone falling and twisting their ankle as they are leaving. LOL

Some really pretty girls , and some really giggly ones .I have it recorded and will take a look later. I cant make my mind if he is cute or if he looks a bit thick.

re: The Bachelor Canada

My son's girlfriend's FB status says that one of the girls is wearing her (his GF's) graduation dress from (she graduated in 2010) but with cowboy boots. I guess it shows that people are normal and maybe don't have huge budgets to spend on evening wear....but cowboy boots?
